I would have to go with Maine at Citi against the Padres. Padres are very weak offensively. I wouldn't throw any pitcher against Florida right now they are way to hot. So Sanchez would be my next choice.

1) Maine - best pitcher, worst opponent
2) Sanchez - at home, Braves a little less dangerous, better big game upside
3) Kawakami - This game will show you a bit about how much you can trust him, but I'd steer clear for now.

Thanks for the help with mine.

Sanchez with the most fantasy upside if you need Ks or anything like that.

But if you just want a general innings eater with low WHIP/ERA, Maine probably won't give up a lot of runs to the Padres (sadly, no one does).

Citi is looking to be a pitcher's park, and it's the Padres offense. Even if Maine doesn't get the win, gotta like the stats he'll put up.
...Boston papers now and then suffer a sharp flurry of arithmetic on this score; indeed, for Williams to have distributed all his hits so they did nobody else any good would constitute a feat of placement unparalleled in the annals of selfishness. -Updike
